I have a 12 fret steel bodied National NRP that I play sitting down, regular right leg position. The only time I notice the weight is when I grab the neck and lift the reso from the case.
Seriously, I've played for multiple hours straight and had zero issues with its weight resting on my leg. I do have a 30# toddler that's always climbing on me, so maybe the reso feels light by comparison. Haha.
Because of the different size/shape/balance of the guitar, it took me a couple days, maybe even a week or so, to settle into a playing position that now seems as comfortable as an old hat.
